The Captain’s voice popped up. [O]Barr.. make it quick, and tell them they are unloading and heading back for more. We need as many runs as possible. Clear in docking bay one. Unload and get everyone to you bring in to the mess hall. We’re gonna be crowded quickly. Minimal rations when they get hungry but let’s hold out as long as we can on water and juice and tea till we see how bad this is gonna be.[O]
Ari
[O] Understood Captain. As soon as we dock, we’ll flip this shuttlepod and head back for another load. [O]
“Alright everyone, it looks like we are looking to evacuate the surface. So as soon as we dock, head for the mess hall, and I will go back for another fun.”
Docking would go smoothly allowing everyone clustered in the shuttle to stream out.
- WookieeAfter docking the young Engineer would respond, “Lt. Barr, I think I better head down to engineering to help there in this time of need. Thank you for allowing me to join the landing party.”

“Ensign,” Alison said turning around in the pilots seat as she was finishing up the landing check list. “You’re welcome to join my team anytime,” she said with a smile before turning back to the controls.
((For time sake… posting to all three threads… please feel free, GM, to post an interrupt…))
Time seemed to slow down. Despite the bustle, people weren’t coming to the Bonnie quick enough.
Shuttles from the cities and from the star ship worked quick and sure. And the transporters were popping folks aboard one by one. Ari watched the stats and listened to the comms as she also watched the structural integrity readings… she wasn’t sure they’d make it.
Ari
CO[O]Barr to the bridge. I am unloaded, refueled, and headed back to the surface for another load. [O]
As she said it, she signaled to the watch officer that she was ready to depart.

=^=Copy that Barr,=^= came the Captain’s voice.
Ari
COAlison flipped the last controls as the bay was cleared. As soon as the doors opened, the shuttlepod was lowered out of the Bonnie. Setting in the coordinates, she pointed the shuttlepod back at the sphere.
Ltjg Barr - CSO
She tapped the console. [O] Attention all away teams. A ship will be docking with the City Sphere. I want everyone on board that we can get. Shuttles, keep bringing them here. If we are stuffed, we’ll see about crossing to other ship at first opportunity. And guy… be alert. We are gonna get resistance from outside. I want everyone at Red Alert.[O]
Ari
CO[O] Understood Captain. Just cleared the Bonaventure, and making my next run. [O]

Alison swung the shuttlepod back to the sphere, heading straight towards the designated pickup point. Coming in for a smooth landing, she popped the hatch.
“Hurry up! Let’s go!” she called out thru the hatch.

Not far from where Alison ‘parked’ she could see Bane’s vessel there. At the moment it didn’t look ‘that’ big. Not far away from her as well were three other small vessels docking. They were between the size of their pod and the Bonnie though each one looked rather worse for wear. The other small issue that Alison found was that the docking was complicated by the City Sphere moving, shifting its mooring location and visibly shuddering.
- WookieeAlison shifted in her seat as the dock shuddered. Pushing herself up and out of the seat, she leaned out the hatch. “Who am I taking? We’ve gotta get going!”
Ltjg Barr - CSO
The ship came over the comms to Barr. The orders were to take her shuttle and move to the chains holding the sphere to the structure. She was going to use the shuttle phasers to weld the scraps the Bonnie lifted into place with tractor beams. They were going to bolster the anchors in hopes of keeping the sphere from breaking free.
Ari
CO
((General orders given, but lemme know when in place and we will do rt orders once more))[O] Shuttle, prepare to phaser on my marks. Incoming coordinates now. We will raise the debris, you stick it in place. Got it? [O]
Ari
CO
[O] Stand by. I’m heading into position right now. [O] Alison said as she slammed the hatch closed and jumped back into the pilot’s seat.
Breaking away from the dock, Alison pulled away hard to avoid the city sphere shifting on its moorings. She headed for the first location.
[O] Bonaventure. I’m in position. [O]
